HIFI

Stablecoin infrastructure for global fiat and on-chain money movement.

HIFI is a composable API platform for teams that move money at scale, combining stablecoin rails, bank rails, compliance, routing, and private settlement infrastructure.

Background

HIFI provides stablecoin and fiat payment infrastructure for developers. Its platform supports inflows, outflows, controls, tokenization, workflows, and private transactions through a single API surface for teams moving money across banks and blockchains.

HIFI publicly announced support for Canton Network settlement, allowing developers to route stablecoin payments through Canton infrastructure with privacy, composability, and institutional-grade compliance.

Key Benefits

• One API for global fiat and stablecoin payments.

• Inflows from banks, cards, and wallets normalized into one model.

• Outflows to bank rails, cards, wallets, and stablecoins.

• Controls for approvals, limits, custody restrictions, and automated workflows.

• KYC, KYB, sanctions screening, monitoring, and compliance tooling built into the platform.

• Canton support for private on-chain settlement using USDCx.

Why Canton

HIFI supports Canton so institutional stablecoin payments can settle on-chain without exposing payment flows, counterparties, routing, treasury positions, or transaction amounts to the broader network. Canton supplies privacy-preserving settlement while HIFI abstracts the payment integration for developers.

What Makes It Unique

HIFI abstracts complex payment infrastructure into a developer API. Businesses can route value across fiat and stablecoin rails, define programmable treasury rules, and use Canton private settlement without writing Daml contracts or running validator infrastructure themselves.

What's Included

Platform

HIFI covers inflows, outflows, controls, tokenization, workflows, and private transactions.

Canton Settlement

Developers can route stablecoin payments through Canton infrastructure, including USDCx settlement, while HIFI handles the payment and compliance layer.

Compliance

The platform highlights KYC, KYB, sanctions screening, ongoing monitoring, SOC 2 Type II controls, role-based access, and transaction telemetry.

Behind the Scenes

HIFI connects banks, payment networks, wallets, stablecoins, and blockchains through a single integration layer. Canton routes confidential settlement at the network level while HIFI manages API access, compliance, routing, and fiat disbursement.

Impact

HIFI gives Canton a developer-facing payments integration path for institutional stablecoin settlement. It helps make Canton privacy usable for treasury automation, private cross-border settlement, and repo or collateral workflows where confidentiality is required.

Looking Ahead

HIFI’s strongest path is deeper Canton settlement support, broader API coverage for stablecoin and fiat movement, more compliance controls, and more developer tooling for teams that need programmable money movement at production scale.
